Quite accountably, in the less than loved This Time With Alan Partridge, they saved the very worst for last. I'd retained hopes for this, and some of the format worked winningly, but as soon as his co-host, the wonderful Susannah Fielding, walked off set at the very start, it fell apart: Alan was just allowed to get nasty, which was never, ever, the point. I'd love to see Alan return. Just not with those writers.
Euan Ferguson, The Guardian, 7th April 2019This Time with Alan Partridge review
It's been called "absolutely genius" and scored five-star reviews -- now, this hilarious TV show is available for Aussies to watch in full, for free.
Nick Bond, News.com.au, 5th April 2019After a slow start, this latest iteration of Coogan's cringe-worthy character has hit its stride in recent weeks, with the introduction of Alan's Irish doppelganger and a perfectly pitched #MeToo episode. Now comes a victory lap of a final episode where, in true Partridge tradition, everything goes even more wrong than usual, and Alan and Sidekick Simon are forced to present the show themselves. Plus, Alan re-enacts his traumatic recent encounter with the boys in blue.

Jasper Rees, The Arts Desk, 1st April 2019Is This Time Alan Partridge's last Aha!?
He still makes for monstrous, relentless and shockingly inappropriate viewing. But as This Time hits the final straight, this is surely the end for Alan.

Thomas Parkes, The Express and Star, 25th March 2019This Time with Alan Partridge, episode 5, review
Here the viewer finds his/her self in a dilemma - to laugh or be appalled, to laugh with or at Alan, or both.
